SAN JOSE — Wilcox junior Marisa Kwiatkowski had a day to remember Friday at the Top 8 Track and Field Classic.

Kwiatkowski won the girls triple jump in a state-best 40 feet, 8 ½ inches. The mark is also No. 2 in the nation behind the 41-10 jumped by Natasha Dicks of South Carolina. Kwiatkowski bettered her previous best of 39-9 four times, twice scaling the 40-foot barrier.

“I’ve been waiting for this moment for a long time,” Kwiatkowski said. “The triple jump is definitely my favorite event.”

Then she came back to win the long jump at 18-7 ¾, an improvement on her previous best of 17-7 by more than a foot. Now she’s got to be liking the long jump quite a bit as well.

Price set a meet record in winning the 400 in 55.67, breaking the record held by Maggie Vessey of Soquel, who went on to a distinguished career in track and field.

“This is such a cool meet, really a lot of fun,” Price said. “The track is fast, good competition — I’m really happy. I was hoping to peak at the CCS finals. Now I hope I can run low 55s at CCS and go on from there.”

Price came back to win the 200 in 24.50. Both of her winning times established new bests in the CCS this season. Miriam Ekwuru of Overfelt was second in both events.

Wright won the high hurdles in 14.40 and the intermediates in 38.26.

“I want to make it to the state finals,” Wright said. “My goal is to make it in both.”

Johnson won the 100 in 10.80 and the 200 in a sizzling 21.46. His previous best this season was 22.69. He also ran the anchor leg on the St. Francis 4×100 relay team, which took first in 42.28.

“It feels great to win here, going against all these great runners,” Johnson said. “It was great competition. All these dudes can run.”

Johnson has signed a letter of intent to play basketball at Sonoma State, so this is his last year of track and field.

“I know I’m going to miss it,” he said.

Ilaoa, the CCS leader all season in the discus, won his favorite event with a season-best mark of 178-6. His previous best was 174-9. He also took first place in the shot put at 52-8 ½.

Wong, the CCS leader in both horizontal jumps, had winning marks of 23-6 ¾ in the long jump and 46-9 in the triple jump. His mark in the triple jump was an improvement on his previous best of 46-4 ¼.

Sabrina Mendoza of Mills won the girls shot put with a personal-best effort of 43-4, breaking the school record of 42-7 set by Buffy Sexton in 1985.

“I will always remember that throw,” Mendoza said.

Mendoza reached 40 feet for the first time late last season.

“At the end of the season I wrote down my goal for this year,” Mendoza said. “I’ve already beat it by two feet.”

Del Mar’s Anya Tonga won the girls discus with a personal-best throw of 132-8 ½. Mendoza took third. Tonga, a transfer from Sequoia, placed fourth in the shot put.

Madeline Fagan of Los Gatos, the state leader in the high jump, won that event with ease at 5-6 ½.

Westmoor’s Kylie Goo, the state leader in the girls 800 going into the meet, placed second behind San Lorenzo Valley’s Anna Maxwell, who set a new state standard at 2:09.34. Goo ran 2:11.72, not far off her previous best of 2:11.49.

Gunn’s Sarah Robinson turned in an impressive performance in winning the girls 1,600 in 4:48.80. Robinson led throughout the race until Nikki Hiltz of Aptos, the defending state champion, passed her with 500 meters left. Hiltz maintained the lead until 200 meters was left when Robinson put on a kick and went past her.

“We’ve been working on that, pushing the last 200,” Robinson said. “When she passed me I just tried to stay as close as possible.”

Milpitas’ Yohaness Estifanos won the boys 3,200 in 9:07.56. Carlmont’s Daniel Bereket took the lead from Leland’s Richard Ho on the third lap, and held it until Estifanos put on a kick with about 200 meters left. Bereket finished second in 9:09.12.

“I’m pretty happy,” said Estifanos, who has signed with Cal. “After the Stanford Invitational I injured my Achilles and took four days off. Then I got sick and missed some more time. Now I’m back in training. This race was a good comeback.”

Estifanos also took second in the 1,600 in 4:18.52.

Anthony Cota of Branham won the boys high jump at 6-6. Marc Toney of St. Francis, the defending CCS champion, won the pole vault at 15-0.

Leigh’s Sarah Williams won the girls 100 in 12.24 and took second in the long jump (17-8 1/4). The Los Gatos team of Caice Lanovaz, Greta Wagner, Hannah Chen and Rachel Staab won the girls 4×100 relay in 47.61. Lanovaz, a freshman, also placed second in the 100 hurdles in a time of 15.38, behind Gilroy’s Samantha UnaDia (15.24), and second in the triple jump (36-5 3/4). Gunn freshman Maya Miklos won the girls 300 hurdles in 44.85, the fastest time in the CCS this season.
